A BRIEF HISTORY OF ZIMBABWE

            In   1890   Zimbabwe   was   colonized   by   Britain, in search for gold mines and farm lands.

Britain   wanted   farm   land   and   gold   mines.   They    brutally   fought   for   what   they   wanted.   They   attacked   the   Ndebele   Kingdom   and   took   there   cattle   and   took  all   of   the   best   land.

 They   became   independent   in   April   1980   which   provided   safe   territory   for   the   guerrilla   armies   and   refugee   camps.
